Row upon row of Georgian houses. From Wikipedia, "Bath Abbey was founded in the 7th century and became a religious centre; the building was rebuilt in the 12th and 16th centuries. In the 17th century, claims were made for the curative properties of water from the springs, and Bath became popular as a spa town in the Georgian era.
Georgian architecture, crafted from Bath stone, includes the Royal Crescent, Circus, Pump Room and Assembly Rooms where Beau Nash presided over the city's social life from 1705 until his death in 1761. Many of the streets and squares were laid out by John Wood, the Elder, and in the 18th century the city became fashionable and the population grew. Jane Austen lived in Bath in the early 19th century. Further building was undertaken in the 19th century and following the Bath Blitz in World War II."
There used to be a nice row of gift shops and cafes, etc, along this road, but pretty much everything was shut along here when we crossed over to have a look.
A fun Saturday morning spent discovering the Prior Park Landscape Garden in Bath. This garden was created in the 1700s by Ralph Allen, a local businessman. He rose from a humble background to become one of the wealthiest men in the country after reorganising the postal system.
In the 1990s, 11.3 hectares (28 acres) of the park and grounds were acquired by the National Trust
The main draw to the garden is this fabulous Palladian bridge, one of only 4 left in the world.
